Looking to the future of surfing, Maui Time is kicking around the idea of featuring younger surfers on a regular basis. When it really comes down to it, the kids are the ones that will be shaping the future. They will be the ones on the covers of all of the mags someday. But until then, we thought an insight into the lives of younger surfers would make good reading. Let us know what you think. For our first attempt in this new area of investigative reporting we caught up with Wesley and Granger Larsen at their home in Kahana. With the guidance of their parents Ric and Tanya, these two groms have come along way in the surfing world in a very short time.

[2016 editor’s note: At various moments in the following Q&A, the exact speaker isn’t clearly mentioned. We have chosen to reprint the interview exactly as it first ran, with these ambiguities left intact.]

Sometimes we have waves right out in front of our house, we call it Noah’s Bay. And if there’s waves we are the only ones that go out. Once in a while we weave through the neighbors here but it’s kinda like our secret spot. It’s a left and a really fast, great wave. And sometimes it’s a right.

MAUITIME: So where do you guys surf?

WESLEY: We surf everywhere. I’ve been to Windmills three times. Once when it was huge, me and my friend Matty went out and it was four feet with and occasional five. The current was very strong. It was scary looking down.

GRANGER: Oh and this summer we went out to Hana, out at Hamoa Bay. All those guys out there surf there. They all live out there.

MAUITIME: Do you guys surf a lot?

Everyday, everyday. It’s our favorite thing to do.

MAUITIME: Any last words? Any advice to new surfers?

Have fun… Can we go outside after this?

MAUITIME: Who is your favorite surfer?

WESLEY: Mark Anderson.

GRANGER: Laird, Laird Hamilton. We like Wake Up Call, you know, the video from Jaws.
